Found the correct spot (at least i think so). A bug had moved in and died. Cleaned that out and nothing behind.
We searched everywhere and could not find it. I hope someone comes and replaces it. Better luck next time
I think it may be gone as I have found this one previously but couldn't get it out do decided to come back another time and it was no where to be seen.
Searched all the appropriate structures but no sign of a nano. We did enjoy our mango smoothie though. TFTC!
The cache is not able to be extracted, I tried with tweezers and a magnetic tool as well and unfortunately the cache has been pushed down and is tightly wedged in.
Found it on an early morning bike ride. Nice spot. Quite a few early morning walkers and dog walkers passing by that I had to dodge. Pretended I was pumping up my tyre as they walked by. You're correct. They don't have to be attached to metal objects. Thanks for the cache.
Catching up with some logs. Found this one with thestoff
My muggle friend found this one quiet easily, I think he is hooked!

Quick find.. took a while to retrieve it as it was jammed in its position.. Awesome cache to let the smaller geocachers find.
A nice early start to the 13/12/14 event day across the road at Piney lakes. We took out the geobikes again and enjoyed the rides.
My geo friend had already found this but allowed me to track it down, my GPS batteries had died and I was using my new iPhone, did the trick with a few cool and warmer guides.
Thanks Lachlan.77 for this nice sneaky hide.

Heading up this way today for the 12/13/14 event and decided to grab a couple on the way up.
A nice quick find here while the kids sat in the car nearby. Just as I replaced, jasenjanine rocked up so continued into the next.
Lachlan1.77 I found your cache Winthrop Wonders - Juett Park on 13/12/2014 12:33 pm. This is my find #2352 and find #3 today. The cache is in good shape. Thanks for the cache!

Luckily I had my special magnet extender tool with me to get this cache. Nice quick find after the nearby event. Tftc
FOUND AFTER JOINING A GROUP OF SUSPECT CHARACTERS CACHING IN THE PARK..
Great cache.
Great cache.
Headed out to find a few caches before Allied Oz's event & this was one of the caches found on the way... As we rounded the corner I remembered I had a DNF here previously, so we were more than pleased to see Kyzabra placing the cache back in it's spot! And for the second time in a week I didn't have to even get out of the car to have our name added to the log TFTC Lachlan1.77!
Headed to Winthrop this afternoon to try and pick up a few caches in the limited time that I had, I think I ended up with a 50/50 strike rate.
Parked right next to GZ here and spotted the cache nearly straight away. The hard bit was the extraction, ended up flicking it out with a paperclip.

Had a blank day in my caching calendar, but what a wild and woolly hunting day it is. Chose this easy find for a mini lunch time run. Container a little hard to extract, would be impossible without tools. Log is a little soggy and could do with a little TLC but not too urgent. Container has no O ring, did it ever have one? Thanks Lachlan1.77 for the hide.
Quickly had this one in hand. Initially thought it was a few across, but shortly had it spotted. Tweezers did come in handy, except when I stabbed myself with them...Replaced cache container as existing one was badly oxidised and it was unable to be opened (except with 2 pairs of pliers - lucky Im a sparky) Existing log in with new container and back in the hidey hole for somebody else to find. TFTC.
It was a nice early start for me and I was eager to explore Pine Lakes and surrounding area for the first time. It was a pleasant morning, calm and mild. This was find number 6 for today. I found this one very difficult to extract. Eventually removed it with pliers but tweezers would be a little easier.
Still chasing my 500 with only a few hours of 2013 left. Clever location for this one! Finding it restored my confidence a bit after the last DNF. TFTC Lachlan1.77
Nice quick find, don't think I've seen a magnetic nano used on wood before! Found with Viagression, my first Aussie find. TFTC!
Thanks to ClydeE for the help! Cache size has been changed! I have obviously forgotten to change the size when the new replacement was placed! Happy caching!
Please change the container size, as it is very confusing looking for the wrong container type. You have it listed as small, but as this is a nano is should be "micro".
Cycling around Winthrop.
First was looking for the metal objects, but when I ran out of choices quickly located it. Would have been easier to read the hint in advance...

Nice day for a wonder. Found cache with geo toddler and then went to check out the lake down the road. OMG so many turtles TFTH
Some red herrings in the photos and previous logs. Certainly no trackable in the one I found. TFTC
Co-ords were spot on making this a quick find here.
A nice area for walking, too.

Out and about on a day's caching with my geograndson and this little nano was found... very quickly - and by the little ankle bighter, much to his delight! Strange that it is listed as small though? The log is fairly damp, so the seal might need replacing.
Thanks for the cache Lachlan1.77.
Thanks for the cache Lachlan1.77.
it is a bit too small and it was very hard to find even though it is in plain site. TFTC

Definitely not where the hint suggested. Scoured the area just in case no luck. Need to disable pls
Muggles across the road were taking too much interest. Pretty sure this one has gone.
Out and about with AmstradKid and Jazl the wonder dog in the Winthrop area to do a little caching run.
Check the GZ location, I did notice some wires under the object so be careful when reachinng in. Muggle neighbours were watching our every move, sorry to say that this one looks to be gone..
